Default Hello! New here....

Hi all!

I have been on MRC for 3 weeks. It has been tough, but it feels good to know I'm in control of my food versus my food being in control of me. I hit the 7-10 day plateau and have been struggling, but still heading in the right direction. Now that the newness is wearing off, I'm down to hard work. I joined this community to help boost my attitude about losing weight! You all seem fantastic and real - can't wait to get to know you.

Best,
Debi in FoCo, Co

Hi Debi!

Welcome!! I am pretty new too, about a month. I really liked what you said about you being in control of your food not your food being in control of you!

Hi Debi,
I'm very new to MRC. I just had my food instruction class last night so today was my first day actually on program. This site has been really informational for me with just having started the program. It was kind of nice reading up on what was going to happen before I went in for the class so that I knew what to expect. The people on here are great!

Welcome Gals! I could not do the MRC without this site! I feel extremely blessed I found this site! I met a wonderfully new Best Friend on here a few weeks ago! I just love our new relationship. We email each other everyday! She is so encouraging along with all the other wonderful women on here.
Keep coming back! This place is the best! Were so glad to have you! Best Wishes .. Angela

Hey ladies...I did MRC a year ago and lost some weight, but got lazy with summertime and quit dieting and working out but I'm jumping back on the bandwagon and I'm hoping to hold myself accountable by posting everyday or everyother day. I can't wait to get to know all of you as you shrink away!

Yea! Hi back, everyone! Excited to see some Colorado friends - I'm seriously SO tired of being fat in Colorado - you stand out like a sore thumb! My goal is to hike a 14er by the end of summer.

I hope you all have a fabulous week!

My wife and I just started Monday 10th of May, it has been difficult, caffine headaches were the worst, but we are both down 5 and 6 lbs for the first full week on medi-slim.

Welcome to the group, that weight is going to come off in no time and you're going to be so happy you started this journey.

I've been on MRC for about a month now, and I have lost 16 pounds. I am in this for the long haul, but each week I have a tiny slip it seems. Not sure why that happens!!

Hi again, AngelaB! I think you're my buddy from the buddy support thread. It's so strange - we are on the same track - similar starting/current/goal weights! I've lost 16 as well - wish it were 25! We were meant to be buddies, I think. As soon as I figure out the PM thing, I will let you know.

Best,
Debi in FoCo, Co
